Tom.. I learned a long time ago when you give something away,it's no longer yours... So it is not taxpayers money, it's BBC money. It may originally have been money owned by taxpayers and even tax frauds, but in paying the licence fee it is now BBC money. If the Government on your...

exasperated the public are becoming, demanding it be brought to a conclusion, whatever that is... That is the rub. It is only the beginning of the process, unless article 50 is withdrawn.

So I take it on balance that you think the last two years have been a shambles?. I think we can agree on that. Where I might differ is on your erroneous assertion that it was the " biggest majority in history" when the difference was 600,000 people out of 34,000,000 ticked one box other than...

I suspect your sophistry is getting you confused.. . Every rotation of the motor and it's reduction gears causes wear and tear . High speed motor running means more wear. If you are unfortunate to put the motor into an inappropriate gear, where it does not have the torque to rotate at full speed...

I would agree with that assessment. There will be no time limited backstop for NI. What there can be is a list of acceptable milestones or actions which would limit the requirement for a backstop. If any other politician were to" show willing" to be flexible,the EU side would assist. It is...

There was a slight misquote on a rte news bulletin last night which referred to him as Nigel Dodge before being corrected....

You should read the actual ECJ judgement , before rushing to your own judgement... The entire document is couched in terms of respecting the sovereignty of any member state,and that includes the UK( Pro tem),and that is why the court ruled that the UK could withdraw their withdrawal notice,so...

Well in fairness, I am a remainer who having read the text at face value also believed it to be impossible, so I am suprised. But it really does mean the clock is ticking... 3.5 months.

The average salary in the UK is 27k , so for the average person the price of a bottle of plonk is no big deal.... Unfortunately average is not a good measure for a skew distribution, as it does include the CEOs ,the Medical consultants and footballers. Cleaners, Waitresses, Bar staff , Shop...

Zathlan, just a point to ponder, you can live the good life there as a tourist because your lifestyle is bankrolled by a wealthy country. And your pensions or charter fees whatever are some multiple of what these people live on. The only time I had concerns for my personal safety ,and they...

Which means of course that you are going to have to spend resources educating your own,and that includes the expensive activities like engineering,science, nursing . Teaching engineering apprentices properly is not a cheap activity . But to do that you need the trade to pay for the food and...

Tommie, I cannot follow the reasoning here,and I would have hoped that you like myself would be very concerned about fueling this meme. I have difficulty in using the word terrorist for reasons I have previously explained,while still abhorring the deeds. But there would have been as many...

You cannot get fresh food from NZ. You can get freshly frozen food ,delivered by ship many weeks later. At a very high price, you can get airported food within perhaps 36 hrs of it being alive.

Yes narrowest of margins . 1.3 m in 37 m is a narrow margin. Put simply 600k people of the 37 million who voted put their X in one box not the other.

I am happy to agree with the proposition that we are living in what is probably the most golden age.... Reflect why poverty has reduced ,and thank China for it. Their brutal, by our standards 1 child policy stabilised their population base, . The United States of China ,for that is what it is...

Actually I see the Brexit debacle as just a totally empty glass . The notion that one would create problems which currently do not exist, and then be proud of having worked half baked solutions to them strikes me as assine. That is not to say that I believe the EU to be a perfect solution not...

I have never suggested that there will be an EU mandated stop to food traffic into the UK, but I am suggesting that the inevitable barriers will hurt both exporters and importers. Indeed the drop in the value of sterling has already put one local factory here in Dundalk into recievership and...
